Furious Putin prepares to use 'father of all bombs' as brave Ukrainians hold up advance: West warns Russia could use terror weapon that vaporizes bodies alongside a massive Amphibious assault as invaders run into fierce resistance in Kyiv

Russia could use savage superweapons that vaporize bodies and crush internal organs if their assault of Ukraine becomes bogged down, Western officials warned tonight.

They fear Vladimir Putin could resort to high-power thermobaric weapons - dubbed the 'father of all bombs' - as brave Ukrainians resist his attempts to take control of Kyiv.

There are also concerns that units that are running behind schedule as they encounter stiff opposition could resort to indiscriminate shelling as a terror weapon.

Thermobaric weapons - also known as vacuum bombs - are high-powered explosive that use the atmosphere itself as part of the explosion. They are among the most powerful non-nuclear weapons ever developed.

A thermobaric bomb dropped by the US on Taliban in Afghanistan in 2017 weighed 21,600 pounds and left a crater more than 300 meters (1,000 feet) wide after it exploded six feet above the ground.

Thermobaric weapons were developed by both the U.S. and the Soviet Union in the 1960s. In September 2007, Russia detonated the largest thermobaric weapon ever made, which created an explosion equivalent to 39.9 tons.

The U.S. version of the weapon reportedly costs over $16 million each.

'My fear would be that if they don't meet their timescale and objectives they would be indiscriminate in their use of violence,' the official said. 'They don’t adhere to the same principles of necessity and proportionality and rule of law that Western forces do.'

More Propaganda.

Nowhere in that article do they provide proof that Putin has ever stated this nonsense.

The articles refers to some other actor who states that Putin “might” use this type of bomb.

Yeah... but does he have enough fuel for the bombers to drop the bomb? So far, his tanks aren’t getting great gas mileage and his credit card got declined at the pump...

For all we know all these people could be dying for 500k in a Refrigerator in Ukraine.

Ukraine’s Zelenskyy has Corruption issues, he got caught moving money to off-shore accounts just before running for office. His benefactor is a corrupt Oligarch.

Biden will do whatever it takes to save Hunter.

Who trusts Russia? They have Corruption and other issues.

None of us know the reason for now, and the Media is just a Lie campaign.

If the bodies are vaporized, I guess we’ll have to trust the media to tell us how many were killed.

Having lived and worked in Russia for three years, I can tell you ( warn you) that you should be careful what you wish for- you should brush up and find out who Vlad’s replacement could be.

“...destroyed infrastructure everywhere”

Just you watch. The US taxpayer will be responsible for rebuilding Ukraine. They’ll blame Trump somehow.

Send in the U.N. If they don’t go stop our contribution to their budget. This would be a no lose situation for us.

——- Nice to see some one doing simple analysis. Ukraine , in the financial industry is well known to have the most corrupted money laundering banks in the world……maybe removing Biden and Hunters Ukrainian banks from SWIFT could have prevented much mayhem.

“Hey Putin, if you want to drop THE BOMB, spill everything you know about Biden and co.

That would do far more damage than anything else.”

Couldn’t Z do the same? Or is he compromised? Soros loves him, which probably means he probably owns Z.

They need to blow the bridge that Russia built to Crimea, to slow the resupply of the Southern Front.

They will link up in the East with the Separatist areas, but it will still disrupt and slow their operations.

Yep, without question, without a single solitary doubt in my mind Biden was working with Putin to finance this invasion.

Biden put sanctions on our energy production, he lifted Russia sanctions giving Putin massive profits and the money to finance the invasion, and incredibly we are BUYING oil from him to this day!!

WHERE IS THE INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATIVE COUNSEL INTO JOE BIDEN???
